The human army was almost upon them. Lan Jue could already feel the pressure of the fleet behind her.
They'd been stationed at the edge of the asteroid belt, checking in on the alien planet every twenty minutes to make sure it hadn't teleported.
Now it looked like it was!
Even if the alien planet wanted to teleport, it wouldn't have enough time.
After all, teleporting required a great deal of energy.
It was impossible to do so without some preparation.
It looked like they'd been too careless.
Lan Jue was puzzled.
"Boss, look!
Something's happening to the planet! "
Su Xiaosu pointed at the distant planet. Her voice was urgent. "It looks like there aren't any more aliens flying out. They're all returning to the planet.
I think they've found out. "
Sure enough, Lan Jue watched closely. There were no longer any aliens flying out of the planet. Instead, they were coming in from all directions and disappearing back into the planet.
The alien planet was like a beehive, waiting for the bees to return from all directions.
A sense of unease crept into Lan Jue's mind.
What was this alien planet up to?
All of Star Division's members were gathered in the main control room.
The Wine Master and the Photographer were ready to teleport away.
This was an interstellar war, and even the shockwaves would be terrifying.
Once the battle began, they would have to be careful.
Their best option was to leave the battlefield and avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Everything they saw would be sent to Tyrannosaurus.
Their orders were to remain where they were and wait for further orders!
It was impossible for such a large scale attack to go unnoticed. It was all part of their plan.
The five fleets spread out behind Tyrannosaurus, using their weapons to clear the asteroid belt in front of them.
Once the battle began, the fleets would need more room to maneuver. Now was not the time to worry about saving energy.
"Huh?"
Lan Jue's eyes widened. What she saw was a sudden change in the alien planet.
This planet, which was not small to begin with, actually began to expand like a balloon, gradually becoming larger.
The planet grew bigger and bigger, and the bigger it became, the more different it became. The center of the planet seemed to have collapsed, gradually turning into a strange ring. Then, a powerful suction force began to come from its direction.
"What are they doing?" Wu Qiu asked in surprise.
Lan Jue's face darkened. A possibility suddenly occurred to him. "When they attacked the Seventh Fleet, they encountered planets like this, but they weren't nearly as large.
Send word to Tyrannosaurus. "
"Not good!
The communication has been cut off! "Ling Ya exclaimed.
Lan Jue's heart sank!
The Northern Alliance's communication equipment had a strong signal. It was definitely not a coincidence that it had suddenly been cut off.
"Boss, the suction's too strong! We're going to be sucked in!" Xiaosu's frantic voice called out.
Sure enough, both Zeus -1 and the asteroids around Zeus -1 began to pick up speed.
The planet continued to grow larger and larger. The center of the planet was like a black hole that swallowed them whole.
It seemed they'd been prepared for this. Even the timing was perfect.
The Wine Master and the Photographer looked at Lan Jue, waiting for his orders.
They could teleport away at any time.
As the suction grew stronger, Zeus -1 began to pick up speed. The asteroids around them followed suit.
Even if the planet didn't pose a threat to them, the asteroids around them were deadly.
The Pauper had already begun to pour his Discipline into Zeus-1, and a golden shield of light sprang up around the ship. It deflected the incoming asteroids.
But they were in space, and even Paragons were minuscule.
The five Paragons were able to protect Zeus-1 for the time being.
But once they reached the planet, the situation would change.
Lan Jue turned her head to look at Wu Qiu. "Minister Wu, we can't send word back now.
There's only one way, and that is to leave the battlefield and send word back to Tyrannosaurus.
What do you think? "
Wu Qiu looked at Lan Jue in surprise. "Leave the battlefield?
How? "
Seeing the spaceship being sucked over, coupled with the loud roars of the meteorites crashing into it, his and Ling Ya's faces had already turned pale.
Lan Jue didn't wait for a response. She gave the order. "Teleport!"
The only way to deal with the situation was to be decisive.
The Wine Master and the Photographer both released their Disciplines in unison.
A low chant began to echo through the air.
Wu Qiu and Ling Ya suddenly felt the world spin around them, and everything around them became unreal.
The pressure of the teleportation caused their bodies to spasm in agony.
Fortunately, it didn't last long.
Bzzz!
Zeus -1 emerged from the void and reappeared on the planet where the portal had been set up.
The Wine Master and the Photographer sat down cross-legged and began to recover their energy.
Wu Qiu and Ling Ya were still in a daze.
"Minister Wu!" Lan Jue came to stand in front of him and slapped him on the forehead.
Immediately, Wu Qiu felt a shudder that came from his soul spread throughout his body, and he immediately recovered from his previous discomfort.
"Get in touch with Tyrannosaurus. See if the signal is working." Lan Jue ordered.
Wu Qiuxian glanced outside the porthole. Everything seemed to have returned to normal, but the Star Field outside was clearly different.
What … what was going on?
How did they leave the battlefield?
Wu Qiu's mind was filled with questions, but as the chief of Tyrannosaurus, he was the first to react. He called in to Tyrannosaurus.
"Tyrannosaurus, Tyrannosaurus!
This is Zeus -1.
Answer me if you copy! "
"This is Tyrannosaurus!" The response came quickly.
Wu Qiu was overjoyed. "There's been a change on the planet, I want to speak to Admiral Kang immediately!"
"I'm Kang Hui!" Almost in the next moment, he picked up Marshal Kang Hui's call.
"What's going on? Why did you lose communications?" Kang Hui asked.
"Admiral, there's been a change on the planet. We've been hit by a strong disturbance and communications have been cut off.
The planet has changed. It's growing in size and is drawing asteroids towards it.
There's a black hole in the center of the planet, very similar to the one they fought against the Seventh Fleet.
Please be careful, Admiral. "
"Where are you?
Give me more information. "Kang Hui's voice was low.
Wu Qiu paused. Where?
How did he know?
He looked to Lan Jue for help.
Lan Jue walked to his side and took the communicator. "Admiral Kang Hui, it's Lan Jue.
The situation was dire and communication was cut off. We've teleported away from the planet.
We can't continue our investigation.
Please be careful, the alien planets must have discovered your presence and are well prepared. "
Teleportation?
Back on Tyrannosaurus, Kang Hui paused. What was going on?
Was that ship capable of teleportation?
Just then, an ear-piercing alarm blared.
"Attention all units, attention all units.
We've been attacked.
Defend immediately! "The electronic voice answered.
Kang Hui wasn't the only one who paled. Lan Jue and the others looked on in shock.
Tyrannosaurus was being attacked?
What was going on?
Lan Jue suddenly thought of something. "Admiral, Admiral, are you still there?" He asked urgently.
Kang Hui displayed an unusual calmness. "I'm here. Speak."
Lan Jue's voice was urgent. "Admiral, please confirm the intruder's condition immediately, and let me know.
I might know who it is. "
After a moment Kang Hui's voice answered. "It's a purple figure, too fast for me to see.
However, his destructive power was extremely strong, and a mecha operator had already fallen.
It's headed for me.
Is it an alien? "Even in the face of imminent danger, he was as calm as ever.
Lan Jue sucked in a breath. Was it really the Violet Princess? Or … the Violet Prince?
The alien planets had been prepared for this. They were in trouble.
Lan Jue's response was immediate. "Admiral, we'll be there as soon as we can. Use the strongest defenses we have to deal with this intruder.
He's an alien in human form.
He's as strong as Jueti, the number one Paragon in the human race.
Please evacuate to a safe location.
All operations are suspended. "
Lan Jue's voice had taken on a hard edge as he spoke.
Tyrannosaurus was the heart of this operation, and Kang Hui was their commander. If something happened to him, they wouldn't just be wiped out, they wouldn't stand a chance.
"When will you be back?" Kang Hui asked.
"Immediately!" Lan Jue answered without hesitation.
"Be decisive, admiral."
